Notes for Parents on the Literature 57From Adam to Us © 2016 Notgrass Company

After careful consideration, we chose ten books to accompany the history lessons in From Adam to Us. We selected books that are well-written and provide an educational look at a certain time period and place in world history. Some of the books have plot elements or dialogue that we want you to be aware of in advance. You are the best one to decide what your child is ready to hear or to read on his own.

The page numbers refer to the specific edition of each book that we sell. The publisher and ISBN of each book are listed under the author’s name.

The Golden GobletEloise Jarvis McGraw(Puffin Newbery Library, ISBN 9780140303353)

The Golden Goblet is an engaging, suspenseful story that takes the reader into the streets of ancient Thebes in Egypt. Ranofer is a poor orphan who pursues his dream of becoming a goldsmith like his father. The book abounds with information about daily life in ancient Egypt, including typical occupations, the economy, religion, food, and the role of the Nile. There are a few elements in the story that we want you to know about before your child begins reading:

• The book contains many references to Egyptian gods and superstitious beliefs. • Several times in the story, Ranofer is beaten by his abusive half-brother. These instances

are told simply and briefly.• Ranofer visits the grave of his father and thanks him for what he believes was his

father’s help in a situation (pages 62-63).• Ranofer’s older brother and his companions are drunk a few times during the story.• The story includes an execution. It is brief and not gory or graphic (pages 77-78).

The Fables of AesopEdited by Joseph Jacobs(Dover Publications, ISBN 9780486418599)

The Fables of Aesop are a pillar of literature. Many different versions are available, both in collections and picture books that contain a single story. First, the stories are valuable in themselves, providing thought-provoking applications to everyday life. Second, their fame merits becoming familiar with them as the fables come up in conversation and references are frequently made to the morals that accompany them. For the From Adam to Us literature collection, we chose an edition first published in England in 1894, profusely illustrated with woodcuts. There are a few elements in the fables that we want you to know about before your child begins reading:

• Pagan gods show up as characters in several of the fables (Jove, pages 31-32; Juno, page 79; Jupiter, page 127; Hercules, page 145; Venus and Jupiter, pages 180-182).

Notes to Parents on the Literature

58 Notes for Parents on the Literature From Adam to Us © 2016 Notgrass Company

• In the fable, “The Hares and the Frogs,” some hares plan to drown themselves rather than live in fear but change their minds (pages 38-39).

• A few of the fables end with a moral that is contrary to a Biblical worldview, such as “The gods help them that help themselves” and “One bad turn deserves another.”

• Alcoholic beverages are mentioned a few times.• Many fables include the death of an animal. (There is a drawing of a fox hung in a tree

on page 95 and a drawing of a goose that has been cut open on page 137.)• “Death” is a character in the fable “The Old Man and Death.” The fable states that

“Death” appears as a “grisly skeleton” (pages 164-165).

The Bronze BowElizabeth George Speare(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, ISBN 9780395137192)

The Bronze Bow is a classic of children’s literature and received the Newbery Medal in 1962. It is beautifully told, the story is gripping, and the message is clearly faith-building. Jesus is a key character in the novel, and His power in the life of Daniel, the story’s main character, will strike the reader and remain in his memory. The reality of life in Roman-occupied Israel is seamlessly told as part of the story—including those Jews that accepted it, profited from it, or violently rebelled against it. The story also demonstrates the continuation of Jewish culture in the midst of occupation. There are a few elements in the story that we want you to know about before your child begins reading:

• Jesus has dialogue in the book that is the creation of the author. While the statements are highly honoring and reflect the words spoken by Jesus as recorded in the Bible, readers should be aware that the words spoken are fictional.

• Daniel tells his friends about the execution by crucifixion of his father, uncle and four others. It is not told in a gruesome manner. Daniel also explains that his mother died shortly afterward (page 82).

• Daniel and the band of zealots of which he is part make a thieving raid. It is briefly described. Two zealots are captured by the Romans. One dies and the other is captured and apparently tortured. This is not told in a graphic or gruesome manner (pages 188-190).

• A band of young men led by Daniel attack Roman soldiers. There is a brief description of violence. One young man dies and another man is wounded. The second man was captured by the Romans and expected to die (pages 207-210).

A Single ShardLinda Sue Park(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, ISBN 9780547534268)

A Single Shard describes Korean village life in the 1100s. The village in the novel is a center of the celadon pottery industry, an actual cultural treasure of Korea’s past. The orphaned Tree-ear and his grandfatherly friend and mentor Crane-man struggle to survive until Tree-ear begins working for a local potter. Tree-ear’s faithfulness to his friends and devotion to his dream of learning to be a potter make this story compelling and memorable. There are a few elements in the story that we want you to know about before your child begins reading:


• In the author’s speech included in the front matter of the book (which is not assigned to be read in the From Adam to Us assignments), she quotes someone else using the phrase, “For God’s sake” (page ix).

• There are several references to villagers drinking wine.• The story refers to a Korean superstition about the strange powers of foxes.• Tree-ear and Crane-man have a brief conversation reflecting their belief in reincarnation

(pages 36-37).• Crane-man tells Tree-ear an old Korean legend that includes queens and concubines

jumping into a river to their death rather than be taken prisoner by an approaching enemy (pages 115-117).

• After a calamity that occurred at the supposed site of the Korean legend noted above, Tree-ear briefly contemplates what it would feel like to jump to his death (page 126).

Otto of the Silver Hand Howard Pyle(Dover Publications, ISBN 9780486217840)

Otto of the Silver Hand is a tale of medieval Germany. Otto is a simple, trusting young boy who was born into a world filled with violence and thirst for power. He is swept into these realities and suffers at the hands of those who choose to be his enemies despite his peaceful nature. Howard Pyle (1853-1911) was a great American author and illustrator who left a large body of his own work and taught many beloved American illustrators, including Jessie Willcox Smith and N.C. Wyeth. There are a few elements in Otto of the Silver Hand that we want you to know about before your child begins reading:

The King’s FifthScott O’Dell(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, ISBN 9780618747832)

The King’s Fifth centers on a young Spanish mapmaker named Estéban de Sandoval who traveled with a band of conquistadors to Central America seeking gold. He writes his own story from prison, where he is on trial for allegedly withholding the one-fifth share of gold demanded by the king from the expedition’s findings.

The Chestry OakKate Seredy(Purple House Press, ISBN 9781930900813)

The Chestry Oak is a memorable World War II story of courage, loss, and redemption. Michael, the young son of the Prince of Chestry, has an idyllic childhood living in the ancestral


castle in the middle of a peaceful valley until the Nazis invade his native Hungary and turn the castle into a command center. Chestry Valley is altered forever and young Michael loses all he knows. He is given a new home by a loving American family and eventually is able to come to terms with his past and present. There are a few elements in the story that we want you to know about before your child begins reading:

• Young women wonder “Which one of us was born under a lucky star . . .” (page 19).• The cracking of a ringing bell is seen as a “bad omen,” followed by the statement, “For

we know, with a wisdom passed by word of mouth from fathers to sons, that no evil can come upon man or beast but its long shadow, cast ahead, is seen, or its parting breath heard, if one has eyes to see, ears to hear, and wisdom to heed the warning” (page 21).

• A young boy “spit his contempt” at Nazis, was shot by them, and left in the street as a warning to others. This is told very briefly in the past tense (page 135).

• A family tradition of planting a tree includes the recitation, “In deep humility and reverence I kneel to thee, Mother Earth . . .” (page 142).

Children of the StormNatasha Vins(JourneyForth, ISBN 9781579248543)

The Vins family were Christians in the hostile environment of the U.S.S.R. This autobiography of the Vins’ oldest daughter focuses on what her family lived through from the 1950s to the 1970s. The family remained faithful to Christ throughout intense and systematic persecution, requiring great personal sacrifice from every member of the family. Their story reveals what everyday life was like for the people of the U.S.S.R. during the late 20th century. Even more importantly, it demonstrates what obedience means when being a Christian is in no way easy or socially acceptable.
